Mauritius (no blue in sight)

I was recently fortunate enough to be sent to Mauritius (to provide three weeks' training for a group of 12 promising young software engineers). When people hit a tropical island, it's usually just blue blue blue - ocean, beaches, palm trees, hammocks, and sunsets.

I don't "do" colour. I wanted to share two magnificent locations I saw on this island, quite far from the ocean:

I had to travel light. Both were taken with the Olympus E-5, and the peerless Zuiko Digital 7-14mm f/4.
